The stomach has three tasks. It stores swallowed food. It mixes the food with stomach acids. Then it sends the mixture on to the small intestine. Most people have a problem with their stomach at one time or another. Indigestion and heartburn are common problems. You can relieve some stomach problems with over-the-counter medicines and lifestyle changes, such as avoiding fatty foods or eating more slowly. Other problems like peptic ulcers or GERD require medical attention.
People often refer to the entire abdominal region as “the stomach.” Actually, your stomach is an organ located in the upper left part of your abdomen. It’s the first intra-abdominal part of your digestive tract. Your stomach contains several muscles. It can change shape as you eat or change posture. It also plays an instrumental role in digestion.
The most common causes of lower back pain are strain and problems with back structures.

Gastritis
Gastritis is when the stomach lining becomes inflamed or swollen. Many possible causes exist for gastritis which can last from short time periods to many years.
Non-Ulcer Dyspepsia
Non-ulcer dyspepsia occurs when patients suffer from indigestion and other symptoms suggestive of an ulcer, yet no abnormality is found upon investigation.
Gastroenteritis
Gastroenteritis is an inflammation of both the stomach and small bowel. Children, the elderly, and people with compromised immune systems can get seriously ill.
Peptic Ulcers
Peptic ulcers are a break in the surface lining of the stomach or duodenum deep enough to produce a crater. Also can be found in the esophagus or small bowel.
Stomach (Gastric) Cancer
Stomach cancer (gastric carcinoma), at one point the second most common cancer, may have symptoms that include weight loss, bleeding and difficulty swallowing.
Other Causes of Digestive Related Diseases
when stomach contents such as food, acid, or bile moves back into your esophagus. When this happens twice a week or more, it’s called gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
This chronic condition can cause heartburn and irritate your esophagus lining:
Hemorrhoids are groups of swollen and inflamed veins in the tissue inside your bottom, specifically the anus and lower rectum. These blood vessels can burst and cause bleeding. You might see blood on toilet paper or in the toilet, and feel pain or itching. It might happen if you strain during a bowel movement. The best way to prevent hemorrhoids is to keep your stools soft so you can pass them easily without straining. Eat a high-fiber diet and drink plenty of fluids each day.
Liver failure occurs when large parts of the liver become damaged beyond repair, and the liver is no longer able to function. Liver failure is a life-threatening condition that demands urgent medical care. Most often, liver failure occurs gradually and over many years. However, a more rare condition known as acute liver failure occurs rapidly (in as little as 48 hours) and can be difficult to detect initially.
You can keep many digestive problems away with lifestyle changes. Bad habits, such as eating too quickly or skipping meals, can upset your stomach. Be sure to eat slowly and chew thoroughly. You might want to try eating several small meals throughout the day. A balanced diet can help, too. Unhealthy foods can cause trouble for your digestive system. Eat less processed food and sugar, and more fiber, fruits, and vegetables.
